Reunited

The newest member of Joe's manual typewriter collection, a Lettera 22



An example of ad hoc street art masquerading as a boarded up window in an abandoned building in Albuquerque's southeast heights



In the same antique store that I found the Lettera 22 was this Oliver No. 9, priced at under $200

Very cool find!

That Oliver looks to be in really good shape. Heavy as a boat anchor, but pretty neat.

Aw, it's a typewriter love story! With a happy ending!

I'm waiting impatiently for my own little Olivetti. Maybe I'll get more adventurous with my typing once I have a lightweight companion to drag around with me.

Nice post. There's no beating an Olivetti Lettera 22, I am glad you have one in your collection.
